Computers will be owned by the school district. Upon graduation, seniors will keep the machine they have been using.
The district will make bulk purchases through a vendor and issue the students their machine at an orientation meeting.
At the end of the school year students will turn in the machine for maintenance and storage. Students will be have the ability to sign out the machine for the summer, but their will be a two week period assigned where the machine must be in the districts hands.
